Neil got a hit 9 of the 11 times he batted in the softball tournament. Maggie got a hit 18 of the 22 times she batted in the tournament. Did they have the same batting records?

Answer:

they have the same batting record

Explanation:

Batting record for each :

Neil :

9 /11 = 0.8181

Maggie :

18 /22 = 0.8181

From here we see that they both have the same proportion of hits :

Hence they have the same batting record
